Project Management Courses

Laragh Skills offers a wide range of project management courses for companies and individuals.

In today’s fast paced corporate environment, it is not enough to simply provide learning resources to your project management staff. Time is too valuable and resources are stretched too thin. Your work force is your single biggest investment and it is imperative that your team gets the information it requires in a way that matches the urgency of the need.

Laragh Skills is the strategic partner and authorized distributor for Skillsoft, which is a PMI® Registered Education Provider (R.E.P.). PMI is the leading global association for the project management profession and is at the forefront of working with business to create project management standards and techniques that work.

SkillSoft is approved by PMI to offer Professional Development Unit (PDU) credits for its courses that are related to project and program management. In addition, SkillSoft courses that are aligned with PMI’s Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMBOK®), are pre-approved for Contact Hour credits for individuals who are preparing to apply for one of PMI’s certification exams.

Need access to a range of project management training including online courses and online books?

Your company can license a KnowledgeCentre®, which is one stop portal allowing your employees access to a diverse array of information, including articles, courses and online books specifically chosen by experts to facilitate learning regardless of skill level. But, more than that, the Project Management KnowledgeCentre includes hands-on SkillSim™ Business Simulations, useful job aids and SkillBriefs for your business professionals to learn and use project management skills in a real-time environment.

If you only want access to a selection of courses, or a collection of online books, you can do that too.

The learning material aligns to the PMI and Prince2® certifications, and is suitable for projects in such diverse areas as manufacturing, information technology and construction. Online mentoring connects you to experts for quick feedback and problem solving, and Test Preps are available to check your readiness for taking certification examinations.
